Review of: 60 Min Full Motion F-18 Simulator Session
Just tried The Avaitor’s brand new Spitfire experience (the first customer on it !) What a blast ! You sit in a genuine to -scale Spitfire cockpit and fly in VR - adjusting throttle , propeller pitch and firing guns, cannon. This is the closest thing you’ll get to flying a real spitfire! You are totally immersed in another world over Southern England during WW2. Takes time to learn to fly since the plane responds just like a real Spit. Great fun strafing a train and doing tight turns in a dogfight. Take care- you can feel a little queesy as you engage the enemy !…

I had the opportunity to get in the new Spitfire simulator today at the Aviator experience. I am a big fan of the Spitfire so it was with great interest I squeezed myself into the cockpit. I have to say it was an awesome experience, just to have a glimpse of what pilots of the day had to deal with just to fly the plane was mind blowing. Looking out of the windows at that fantastic elliptical wing shape, the Browning machine guns and Hispano Canon was a dream come true. My landings will need some more work, but I'm more than happy to come back again and perfect that in the future, an amazing piece of kit that makes you feel like its the real thing. Dave Clarke…

This was the second time for me and simply mind blowing. 30 minutes flying the F/A 18 Hornet motion base simulator followed by an hour of Spitfire air to air combat only had me wishing for more. The simulation experience alone was worth every cent however it was the assistance and advice provided by Craig which ensured a positive experience. All this before you take in the passion and sheer joy exhibited by both Craig and Mikey. Thank you guys, you are awesome. We are already planning our next visit.…

My Mum got to 'fly' in a Spitfire over France just like Grandad did in the war. Very special experience for her. Craig was exceptionally kind and patient, obviously very passionate about what he does. We will definitely be back! Great to see all the wonderful reviews - well deserved!!…
